Your Quick Cunknown. And it only took you like 16 months to figure that out. I've got news for you though....R'yleh is a better faction than Vanheim.....

No way. Or rather you have to enlighten me because i praised Chris Vanheim also .

I need to stop the [censored] hoarding strat, it sucks compared to a good conquest strat.
If you hoard you likely survive a while and are one of the last 4-5 alive nations. So hoarding brings you more likely into the endgame, at least i almost always made it into the last 3-5 nations when i hoarded, so its my subjective experience.

But if you warmonger well you grow faster. The chance that you die by attacking the wrong guy or being gangbanged later is high, so the chance to make it into the lategame is lower. But the chance to win the game if you make it into the lategame is much higher.

There will be almost always one warmonger nation that warmongers so well that it grows faster than anyone. Then you can't stop them anymore even if you hoarded.

I could only hoard moderately in this game unfortunately, overall there is no way to beat the mictlan juggernaut for me i guess.
I might be close in gemincome, but your gold+blood income exceeds my income in these resources by far.

And Chris you are even another dimension . Amazing what you have achieved with vanheim .
